Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for producing a nonwoven fabric with at least one nonwoven web, with at least one spinning device or at least one spinning beam for spinning fibers being present and with a deposit conveyor - in particular a deposit sieve belt - being provided on which the fibers can be deposited to form the nonwoven web.
  • the invention also relates to a method for producing a corresponding nonwoven fabric.
  • fibers made of thermoplastic material are used as fibers and preferably continuous filaments made of thermoplastic material. Endless filaments differ from staple fibers, which have much shorter lengths of, for example, 10 mm to 60 mm, because of their quasi-endless length.
  • the continuous filaments used within the scope of the invention are in particular continuous filaments produced with a spunbond device or with a spunbond process, preferably made of thermoplastic material.
  • high-loft products are very preferred for certain applications. These are nonwovens or spunbonded nonwovens with a relatively large thickness and a high degree of softness. The production of these high-loft products with the desired properties is not always easy, especially since the nonwovens also have to be consolidated and the consolidations cause impairments in thickness and/or softness. Therefore, there is a conflict of objectives between high softness and thickness on the one hand and sufficient strength or abrasion resistance of the nonwovens on the other. The previously known devices and methods have often not brought satisfactory results in this regard.
  • WO 2018/064595 describes a device for producing nonwovens with a spinning device and deposit conveyor. In this device, two deposit conveyors are connected in series. The strength in the machine direction of the nonwoven web before transfer to the further conveyor and the temperature of the surface of the further conveyor before the hot air final bonding device are not disclosed.
  • the invention is based on the technical problem of specifying a device of the type mentioned at the outset, with which an advantageous pre-consolidation and also an optimal final consolidation of nonwovens can be achieved and with which, if necessary, a nonwoven of high thickness and high softness can also be produced without any problems can.
  • the invention is also based on the technical problem of specifying a corresponding method for producing such a nonwoven fabric.
  • the invention teaches a device for producing a nonwoven fabric with at least one nonwoven web, with at least one spinning device or at least one spinning beam for spinning fibers being present, with a deposit conveyor - in particular a deposit sieve belt - being provided on which the fibers can be placed on the fleece web, at least one hot-air pre-consolidation device for hot-air pre-consolidation of the fleece web is provided on the deposit conveyor or on the deposit sieve belt, wherein in the conveying direction of the fleece web behind the deposit conveyor or behind the deposit sieve belt there is another conveyor - in particular in the form of a conveyor belt - for receiving the pre-bonded nonwoven web is arranged by the deposit conveyor, with at least one final bonding device - in particular at least one hot air final bonding device - being provided for final bonding or for hot air final bonding of the nonwoven web on the further conveyor or on the conveyor belt, with the hot air prebonding of the nonwoven web on the Deposit conveyor or on the deposit sieve belt can be carried out with the
  • MD Machine direction
  • the nonwoven produced according to the invention can have only one nonwoven web or one nonwoven layer or it can also have several nonwoven webs or nonwoven layers arranged one on top of the other, which are combined to form the nonwoven laminate. If several non-woven webs are arranged one on top of the other, each non-woven web is expediently assigned a spinning device or spinning beam. As a rule, the number of spinning devices or spinning beams arranged one behind the other corresponds to the number of fleece webs or fleece layers that are combined one on top of the other to form the fleece laminate.
  • the deposit conveyor or the deposit sieve belt is designed in particular as an endlessly circulating deposit sieve belt.
  • the conveyor or the conveyor belt is expediently designed as an endlessly circulating conveyor belt.
  • the deposit conveyor or the deposit sieve belt is designed to be air-permeable so that process air can be sucked through.
  • the further conveyor or the conveyor belt can be designed to be air-permeable.
  • the further conveyor can also be designed as a roller or drum or the like.
  • separate conveyors are used for the pre-consolidation of the non-woven web on the one hand and for the final consolidation of the non-woven web on the other hand, namely the deposit conveyor or the deposit sieve belt for the hot-air pre-consolidation and the further conveyor or the conveyor belt for the final consolidation or the hot-air final consolidation.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that this separation of the conveyors for the pre-consolidation on the one hand and for the final consolidation on the other hand is surprisingly particularly advantageous for the nonwoven fabric to be produced and in particular also leads to advantages in the process control for the production of the nonwoven fabric. This applies above all to nonwovens with lower basis weights and/or for the production of nonwovens at higher production speeds.
  • the invention is based, inter alia, on the knowledge that the device according to the invention and a method carried out with the device according to the invention are particularly advantageous in terms of energy.
  • the pre-consolidation and the final consolidation are carried out on the same sieve belt are inevitably relatively high energy losses.
  • the hot-air final consolidation device the nonwoven or the screen belt is heated to relatively high temperatures.
  • the endlessly circulating depositing sieve belt is then guided through the depositing area for the fibers again, in which process air is sucked through the depositing sieve belt and this is consequently cooled down relatively significantly.
  • This cooled screen belt then has to be heated up again in the final consolidation device, which is energy-intensive. This entails considerable energy losses, which increase even further with higher production speeds - for example in multi-beam systems.
  • the device according to the invention is also particularly suitable for the production of high-loft products. With the device it is possible to achieve an optimal compromise between sufficient thickness and high softness of the non-woven fabric and also a satisfactory strength of the non-woven fabric.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that the non-woven fabric should have a strength in the machine direction (MD) in the range claimed according to the invention after preconsolidation. As a result, bulky and soft nonwoven fabrics with optimal strength can be obtained.

It is also within the scope of the invention for the fibers for the individual fleece webs to be laid down and the hot-air pre-consolidation to be carried out on one and the same deposit conveyor or sieve belt. The final consolidation then takes place on the further conveyor or on the conveyor belt.
  • At least one intermediate conveyor or at least one intermediate conveyor belt is interposed between the deposit conveyor and the further conveyor when only one fleece web is produced or when several fleece webs are produced with several spinning beams.
  • teaching according to the invention is preferably to be understood in such a way that the individual nonwoven web or the nonwoven web aggregate has the strength in the machine direction (MD) in the claimed interval before being transferred to the at least one intermediate conveyor.
  • the intermediate conveyor can also be a roller or deflection roller, a roller, a drum or the like.

If several spinning beams are used for the device according to the invention, at least one spinning beam or at least two spinning beams or all spinning beams are set up for the production of crimped fibers or crimped continuous filaments.
  • the embodiment of the device according to the invention or the method according to the invention for the production of at least one nonwoven web from crimped fibers or continuous filaments is of particular importance. In this way, a high-loft nonwoven can be produced very easily.
  • the invention is based on the finding that the advantageous properties of such a high-loft product can surprisingly be retained due to the structure of the device according to the invention or due to the implementation of the method according to the invention and nevertheless an effective method with sufficient strength of the nonwoven web or of the fleece webs is possible.
